Transporting Your Luggage To Malaysia

Whether you are travelling to Malaysia to explore the country, off to study abroad, or perhaps are relocating there with your family or for work – one of your biggest priorities will inevitably be transporting all of your personal belongings there in one piece. Thankfully, Uni Baggage offers a solution. Our service provides an affordable alternative to traditional methods of luggage transportation, such as airline baggage and removals.

Airline Baggage

The most common and seemingly most convenient way to transport your luggage overseas is to, of course, carry your baggage with you on your flight to Malaysia. However, doing so means you do need to keep in mind your airline’s restrictive baggage weight allowance. It could mean that you may have to make the sacrifice that no one wants to make, which is leaving some of your beloved personal belongings behind. You might still be slapped with extortionate excess baggage charges at the check-in desk.

Traditional International Removals

If you’re uprooting to Malaysia, perhaps for work purposes or with family, you might consider hiring a traditional international removals company to transport your belongings. In theory, it’s perfect. Traditional international removals companies are excellent for shipping large, bulky items such as sofas and beds. However, if you’re on a strict budget and a tight timescale, you may find the cost and transit times don’t align with your needs.

Malaysian Customs Information

When shipping personal effects to Malaysia, you are legally required to complete and send a customs declaration with your shipment. If your shipment does not have a customs invoice attached, it will not make it past your local country border, and you may have to pay return charges to get it back. Uni Baggage will automatically provide you with the appropriate customs paperwork for you to complete and attach to your shipment.

Generally, Uni Baggage shipments clear customs in a timely manner, free from duties and taxes, as most countries offer a generous duty-free allowance for personal effects. However, it should be noted that customs processes and allowances are different in each and every country, and because Uni Baggage has no control over any decisions made by any customs authority, we do advise doing your own personal research into Malaysian customs regulations and quarantine before booking your shipment to Malaysia.

Please note: shipments entering Malaysia declared over the value of £80 will likely undergo further inspection by customs, resulting in additional time to clear and potentially incurring duty and taxes. We advise that these shipments should have a lesser value.

If you choose to send any non-compensation items, please ensure they are packaged securely and appropriately.

Please note that import allowances, security and customs processes differ all around the world; we recommend that you do your own personal research into what may be prohibited in your destination country before booking your shipment to Malaysia.

When sending your belongings to Malaysia with Uni Baggage, we recommend using either suitcases or strong boxes to package your items so they are suitable for transit.

We had a great experience with Unibaggage and sending our scuba diving gear ahead of us to Indonesia. Unibaggage is really great value and convenience because our airline wanted to charge USD 51 per kg for excess baggage. I also researched all other airlines for the best rate overall (flight + excess baggage) and all of them were far too expensive.
I'd like to share some of the detail of our experience because it's not always easy to ship things to Indonesia.
Customs regulations in Indonesia are very strict and you do need to be patient - the customs clearance in Indonesia took 1 week in our case. Once in Indonesia we had to liaise directly with DHL to provide additional documentation for customs and they were very helpful and friendly.
On our arrival into Bali, DHL got in touch to request the following to submit to customs with our personal effects: Copy of flight ticket, boarding pass, passport and entry stamp in passport. We sent photos of these documents via email and waited for the customs clearance.
Customs did go through all our belongings as part of the clearance inspection, this is normal, but everything was still there when we received our bags.
Having heard all kinds of nightmare stories from local expats about customs and importing stuff, we did worry about experiencing problems, but there was no need. Everything worked out smoothly and now we are busy scuba diving!

I had a very good experience with Uni Baggage from beginning to end. I sent a 10kg bag from Liverpool, UK to Melbourne Australia. All of my questions were answered very thoroughly and patiently over the phone. I had to fill in customs declarations forms online and there was a live chat available which was extremely helpful, as I had some questions about how specific these details had to be. I was able to track my item and received email updates from Uni Baggage each day. Very affordable compared to other shipping options, especially considering this is an express (3-4 day) service. Would definitely use Uni Baggage again and recommend them to others.
